Day 137, May 17

"The goal is not to live forever. The goal is to create something that will." Chuck Palanuik

I admit that though I have given much thought to the act of creating, I haven't given much to the idea of creating something that will live forever. What can possibly live forever? We live in a disposable world. Then I began looking at the idea with different eyes, a different heart.

Will my family, the generations of it, live forever? Yes. They will live long after I've passed from this mortal sphere. Will a kind deed live forever? Yes, again. If it promotes another kind deed and that promotes another and so on.
